The first RSE conference in 2016 brought together 202 Research Software Engineers from 14 countries and was a huge success:

“This might have been my 30th conference but it was the first where I felt thematically 100% at home and understood. I understood that I am not alone with my observation, practices, solutions, problems. Great discussions, great networking, great venue, great organisation."

“It was a fantastic conference put together really well. I especially loved the small size (very manageable and easy to meet everyone!) and the venue (how refreshing to walk to other rooms quickly instead of running across conference centres).”I

The RSE committee kindly offers to provide a mentor for less experienced conference speakers or workshop leaders. Questions before submitting a proposal can be sent to rse2017@rse.ac.uk.
